In Hong Kong, people who have been exposed to coronavirus can get sent to government quarantine centers for isolation — even if they don’t have any symptoms. This is what happened to a CNN producer who had to go to quarantine camp:

If you'd asked me a month ago what I thought I'd be up to on my 30th birthday, being confined to a government quarantine center in Hong Kong wasn't near the top of the list.

But the coronavirus pandemic has derailed a lot of plans -- and even in a city that's grown used to upheaval, the recent sudden shift in response to a surge in Covid-19 cases has been startling.For me, it's meant going from planning holidays and parties, to being escorted from my apartment by hazmat-suited health care workers and driven to a quarantine facility for two weeks of isolation.

The murderous Chinese communists provided a cure little apartment. Cnn is d*cking disgusting. Why didn’t she ask about the Muslims I’m concentration camps?

What ? ! I don't think this could be effective.

PURE COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA LIES BEING PUSHED BY CNN. THE Communist News Network.

Watch. Rick people will move out of cities. White Flight part 2, END TIMES EDITION!

Donald Trump's remarks about economic growth after Corona are an illusion. He has no intellect and speaks like Corona the day before.

But if you coming from China, you will not be sent to quarantine centers for isolatio. Funny policy

Strangely, CNN champions Communist China and its brutality and torture of humans. Meanwhile, CNN trashing medications 24/7 that have proven to combat the Coronavirus. Very ODD.

Even though u r not asymptomatic, u will be in Quarantine as a precaution, it's good for ourself but horrible to stay alone

About 25% Covid-19 patients have no symptoms, according to FDA’s data, the R0 of the disease is above 5. If the patients go out and transmit the disease , who will burden the responsibility?

Even though you have no symptoms, you can be thrown into quarantine centers for isolation in Hong Kong. It’s unthinkable but can’t be helped. They need to play it for safe.

什么都不懂,就会瞎说八道。现在检测到有一些无症状感染者,美国也有。如果你们不及时解决,会感染到更多无辜健康的人民。

I wish you may go to china who are chasing away Africans there with also , Senegal village with new vaccine there AfricansAreNotGuineaPigs

I LOVE THE FACT TRUMP KEEPS HIS ENEMIES VERY CLOSE TO HIM FOR OPTICS ! IT'S EASIER TO EXSPOSE TRADERS TO AMERICA THAT WAY , DR. FAUCI IS ONE OF THEM & DEFINITELY HAS AN AGENDA , WHEN WILL HE BE ARRESTED, SAME GOES FOR BILL GATES ! HE'S NOT EVEN A DOCTOR🤔

Hong Kong building are not as new as China

Are you sure you are not talking about LA?

U.S. Government Should Learn from China.Good!

Quarantine camps?😬 I'll stay home, no camp for me.

That will be all those protesters, looks like we won’t be seeing them anytime soon

China and their fucking camps.........

It's too late when they have symptoms...

Quit the fake news, lies, & fabrications. Report facts and truth, not your political opinions, anti pres realDonaldTrump crap. Go back to school, learn journalism reporting Truth. Go to church, confess your sins. Learn to show respect to Our President.

Never trust China. Read about history of Chinese people. They believe in asymmetric warfare
